I didn’t know, until I read the Independent Thursday morning! (12th June 2009!)
The Recession is over!
Yep! This is what the people in the know are telling us.
True or not the game has changed.
Recession is that period of time in which you find yourself wishing you had done three years ago the things that would be making a difference in what you’re experiencing now.
Success hides a multitude of sins. It is in the difficult times that we learn what really works and what doesn’t, what we can really live without and what we can’t.
The companies who think the good old days are just around the corner will be in for a rude awakening.
Why?
In 2008 Capitalism as we know it came to an end.
When the definition of growth shifted from adding genuine value to how fast money flows, the problem began. When the music (money flow) stopped, the domino effect started.
From now on how we do business will change.
How?
This is my guess!
